Description
Bitcoin was designed as a peer-to-peer electronic cash system, but that promise is slipping. In this talk, Rami Alsridi explains how reliance on ETFs, custodians, and exchanges weakens bitcoin’s core. He argues that self-custody, mining participation, and education are essential to long-term resilience.
